1.7 Compare the revised email

A concise email can carry the decision in a few lines.

Subject: Approval requested: move workshop to Thursday

The venue is unavailable on Tuesday. Thursday is available, and the agenda can remain the same.

May I notify participants of the proposed change? Please confirm by 15:00 Wednesday.

Remember: the revised email states the purpose, facts and next step without blame.

Why is the revised email easier to act on?
